In this episode, Clark Ray, Tony Walmsley and I talked about the power of authentic leadership.

How do we know what's authentic?

We discussed psychological safety, the pitfalls of social media's lack of authenticity, and the importance of staying true to oneself.

The conversation also tackles the role of universal truths, conflict resolution, and the 10th man concept in leadership and personal development.
